Last Semester

Well I have done a pretty crappy job updating this blog and bringing you new and exciting news of my life and adventures. I am here to change that! I will give you a quick update of the past 4 months. Starting off with the end of summer.

In the end of summer I finished up my 2012 Color Run video, finished up my internship with DiaSorin, and moved into my new house. Check out my color run video right here. Tell me what you think either on the YouTube page or this post. My internship with DiaSorin was very rewarding and I learned a great deal about marketing in my position. At DiaSorin I created product brochures, developed a employee handbook for their mid summer convention, researched and developed a social media proposal, and worked with the sales team on product research and development. If you want to know a little more about my experience with them check out my LinkedIn page here: Andrey Ablamunets. Finally I moved into a new house with some bros! Pretty sweet stuff I know.

My semester at the U was not an easy one. I had two difficult marketing classes and a stats class that did not want to give up. During the semester I worked hard on finding a new internship, working with Ryan on Phi Kappa Psi’s Philanthropy and trying to stay involved with the fraternity. I was also able to get a few more rides in on the bike. Oh and I ran a marathon.

In November I got an offer for a Marketing Internship at d.trio marketing group. It was a very exciting offer for me that I did not hesitate on accepting. I have been working at d.trio for a little over a month now and I love it. The company is great and the atmosphere is exactly what I would want in a company. They have really good clients and are creating amazing work for them.

I am once again the Philanthropy Chair at Phi Psi, 3 years running! I have some really big ideas for my last semester at PKP. I can’t wait to get the planning started. If you have any suggestions of organizations that we should work

with email me at ablam002@umn.edu. I am also working on a movie for PKP of the past semester.

Finally, I had a few good runs on my mountain bike with Josh before it got too cold and I finished my second Twin Cities Marathon.

Winter Break blog post is coming up shortly. It will feature my trips to Jackson Hole and Israel.
